49ers owner Jed York is found with wads of cash as he is arrested in trailer park prostitution sting

Newly-released bodycam shows police shocked at the amount of cash being carried by San Francisco 49ers owner Jed York as he was arrested in a prostitution sting at an Ohio trailer park.

The multimillionaire, who also has stake in British soccer clubs Leeds United and Rangers, was snared in an undercover operation on Sunday (August 23) at the Wheat Hill Mobile Home Community in East Palestine after replying to an ad and agreeing to pay $140 for sex.

Bodycam from East Palestine police shows their officers realizing the man they’d arrested was of substantial means when they go through his wallet and find “s***loads of cash.”

York was charged with disorderly conduct as part of a plea deal and received one day in jail, credited as time served.
